251492 2004-07-11 03:56:00 Should have been clearer. Spider V1.16 - hidden URL inspecter - gets rid of all history, cookies etc. States OK for Win9x or WinNT. Originally recommended by Susan B ages ago.

251493 2004-07-11 04:09:00 Yes its OK on XP but its easier just to use a better web browser. Opera is good. HadO (796)
251494 2004-07-11 05:25:00 Hi Peter :-)

I have used Spider on Win XP but not very successfully unfortunately . Everything I run it there are always lots more entries to be deleted again so it appears to be out of its depth in Win XP .

Index . dat Suite ( . majorgeeks . com/download4280 . html" target="_blank">www . majorgeeks . com) does a very good job - as with Spider you can view the contents of the index . dat files .

If you just wish to delete the index . dat files there have been discussions not long ago on some different methods of getting rid of them . Do a search for index . dat with Terry Porritt as the username . :-)
